FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze a teammate's working style from Slack and GitHub activity?▼

Build an evidence-based person skill by collecting 3–5 quotes from GitHub reviews, Slack messages, Linear issues, and Notion pages. Synthesize these quotes to codify tone, identify BLOCK/DISCUSS/IGNORE signals, and document mental models.

What is an evidence-based person skill and how does it capture collaboration patterns?▼

An evidence-based person skill is a documented profile of a teammate's working style built from cross-channel evidence. It captures collaboration patterns by preserving source references from GitHub, Slack, Linear, and Notion to codify tone and communication signals.

How do I create a teammate skill using Linear and Notion documentation?▼

Create a teammate skill by analyzing Linear issues for milestone thinking and Notion pages for documentation clarity. The skill synthesizes this data with GitHub and Slack evidence to produce a structured profile with mental models and coding patterns.

Can I enrich an existing teammate skill stub with cross-channel evidence?▼

Yes, you can enrich an existing stub by applying cross-channel evidence collection from GitHub, Slack, Linear, and Notion. This process extracts actual quotes and identifies BLOCK/DISCUSS/IGNORE signals to flesh out the stub with real behavioral data.

What's the best way to document a developer's PR review philosophy and communication tone?▼

Document a developer's review philosophy by extracting patterns and ownership signals directly from actual GitHub PRs and comments. Cross-reference these with Slack message tone to synthesize a structured person skill that codifies their collaboration patterns.
